The periodic table of elements is a landmark categorization developed in 1869 by the Russian chemist and inventor Dmitri Mendeleev. It arranges all natural and synthetic elements by their atomic ...

often called the periodic table, organizes all discovered chemical elements in rows (called periods) and columns (called groups) according to increasing atomic number. Scientists use the periodic ...

Using lasers beams to measure the nuclear radius of isotopes at the end of periodic table. Elements at the end of the ...

Just four years before Mendeleev announced his periodic table, Newlands noticed that there were similarities between elements with atomic weights ... and this nearly always gives the same order as the ...

University of Liverpool researchers are part of an international research collaboration that has shed light on what happens ...

but there were always a few missing blocks in the periodic table. These elements, with atomic numbers of 113, 115, 117, and 118 comprise the missing parts of period 7 – the lowest row – of the ...

Scientists have discovered a new way of creating superheavy elements by firing supercharged ion beams at dense atoms. The team believes this method could potentially help synthesize the hypothetical ...

Scientists at Berkeley Lab are using a new technique to create increasingly heavier elements, with the goal of reaching ...

Where does the periodic table of chemical elements end and which processes lead to the existence of heavy elements? Researchers report on experiments to come closer to an answer. They gained insight ...

An international team led by scientists of GSI/FAIR in Darmstadt, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz and the Helmholtz Institute Mainz, succeeded in determining the chemical properties of the ...
